Adoramus te Christe TBB (Dubois)

Here is a TBB version of Adoramus te Christe by Theodore Dubois which I made for our schola: (pdf of the score).

We typically use this on Good Friday, in place of the chant version of the same text. However, the piece is in origin the conclusion of Dubois’ oratiorio of The Last Words of Christ.

Below are some practice mp3’s which I made myself. I layered 7 tracks to get “take one”; I then weeded out most of these and re-did them to get “take two” (it has either 6 or 7 tracks). The individual parts are excerpted from “take two”.

Note on the division of parts: Let’s say there are 6 men singing; where there are two parts, they are divided: 1, 2, 3 / 4, 5, 6. In the middle sections with three parts, one from each part goes to the middle: 1, 2 / 3, 4 / 5, 6.
